Mount Temple Duathlon RT from Banff
On Aug. 26, 2016, I rode my bike from Banff, ascended/descended Mount Temple via the SW ridge, then rode back to Banff in 13h56m. This trip was solo and unsupported, carrying all my food and gear for the day myself. I was very much inspired by Longs Peak du/triathalon to give this a shot.
I started and stopped my watch at my apartment on Cave Ave., but this only adds a few minutes to the overall time from downtown Banff. My splits are as follows:
01h36m Castle Junction
03h01m Lake Louise Village
04h36m Moraine Lake (T1)
05h59m Sentinel Pass
07h52m Mt. Temple summit
09h31m Sentinel Pass
10h14m Moraine Lake (T2)
10h57m Lake Louise Village
12h27m Castle Junction
13h56m Banff
